Locating the Contributions of the African Diaspora in the Canadian Co-Operative Sector
International Journal of CO-OPERATIVE ACCOUNTING AND MANAGEMENT, 2020 VOLUME 3, ISSUE 3 DOI: 10.36830/IJCAM.202014 Locating the Contributions of the African Diaspora in the Canadian Co-operative Sector Caroline Shenaz Hossein, Associate Professor of Business & Society, York University, Canada Abstract: Despite Canada’s legacy of co-operativism, Eurocentrism dominates thinking in the Canadian co- op movement. This has resulted in the exclusion of racialized Canadians. Building on Jessica Gordon Nembhard’s (2014) exposure of the historical fact of African Americans’ alienation from their own cooperativism as well as the mainstream coop movement, I argue that Canadian co-operative studies are limited in their scope and fail to include the contributions of Black, Indigenous, and people of colour (BIPOC). I also argue that the discourses of the Anglo and Francophone experiences dominate the literature, with mainly white people narrating the Indigenous experience. Finally, I hold that the definition of co-operatives that we use in Canada should include informal as well as formal co-operatives. Guyanese economist C.Y. Thomas’ (1974) work has influenced how Canadians engage in co-operative community economies. However, the preoccupation with formally registered co-operatives excludes many BIPOC Canadians. By only recounting stories about how Black people have failed to make co-operatives “successful” financially, the Canadian Movement has missed many stories of informal co-operatives that have been effective in what they set out to do. Expanding what we mean by co-operatives for the Canadian context will better capture the impact of co-operatives among BIPOC Canadians. Caroline Shenaz Hossein is Associate Professor of Business & Society in the Department of Social Science at York University in Toronto, Canada. -

From the Mill to the Hill: Race, Gender, and Nation in the Making of a French-Canadian Community in Maillardville, Bc, 1909-1939
FROM THE MILL TO THE HILL: RACE, GENDER, AND NATION IN THE MAKING OF A FRENCH-CANADIAN COMMUNITY IN MAILLARDVILLE, BC, 1909-1939 by Genevieve Lapointe B.A., Universite Laval, 2002 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (Sociology) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA May 2007 © Genevieve Lapointe, 2007 ABSTRACT This study looks at the making of a French-Canadian community in Maillardville, British Columbia, between 1909 and 1939. Drawing on oral history transcripts, as well as textual and visual documents, From the Mill to the Hill explores how complicated and contested relations of race, class, gender, and sexuality intertwined to constitute a French-Canadian identity and community in Maillardville prior to the Second World War. Using critical discourse analysis as methodology, this study examines the narratives of 23 men and women who were interviewed in the early 1970s and lived in Maillardville in the period preceding that war. Newspaper articles, city council minutes, company records, church records, as well as historical photographs culled from various archives and a local museum, also serve as primary documents. From the Mill to the Hill argues that a French-Canadian identity and community was constructed in Maillardville between 1909 and 1939 through the racialization of bodies and spaces. Narratives about the myth of the frontier, the opposite "other," and the racialization of the space in and around the company town of Fraser Mills illustrate how identity construction operated within a gendered and racialized framework. Secondly, this study excavates the fragile "whiteness" of French Canadians as both colonizers and colonized in British Columbia. -

Imagining Quebec
Imagining Quebec and Canada. Quebec in Canada. Quebec out of Canada. Since the late eighteenth century, this issue of Quebec and Canada has been at the heart of Canada's national self-construction. Writers and literary critics, with their need for symbolic representation, have per- sistently worked at finding a metaphor that can adequately represent the relationship between Quebec and the rest of Canada. In 1945, Hugh MacLennan borrowed "two solitudes" from Rainer Maria Rilke (who was using it to describe two lovers) and this metaphor certainly has currency in English Canada (a photocopy with the full quotation appeared on a bulletin board near my office just before the recent referendum). As early as 1876, Pierre-Joseph-Olivier Chauveau had suggested the famous "double spiral" staircase at the Château de Chambord, which two people can climb while catching only glimpses of each other, and without meeting at all. Phillip Stratford's 1979 image is more uncompromising: parallel lines that never meet. E.D. Blodgett suggests a "gitter," German for a "lattice-work fence, a grid of interwoven strands whose common threads relate and distinguish, but do not unify" (33). Patricia Smart borrows an image from a text by Nicole Brossard, of two women back to back: "Brossard's image is one of touching but not of fusion, of separate identities respected and shared as both partners look not at each other, but—supporting each other—out to the world. Transposed, it becomes an image of two nations and two pro- jects, an adjacent but not common space, a border shared in which both cultures find strength in difference." In 1969, D.G. -
The Title for This Paper Comes from a Story That David Rome Tells As Part
ICJS WORKING PAPER Sharon Gubbay Helfer 2012-08-27 Rome Among the Bishops: a reflection on David Rome and his contributions to dialogue1 INTRODUCTION Born in Vilnius, Lithuania, in 1910, David Rome arrived with his parents in Vancouver, Canada, at the age of 11. He settled in Montréal in the late 1930s. In 1942 he was hired as press officer by the Canadian Jewish Congress (CJC). From 1953 to 1972, he was Director of the Jewish Public Library; thereafter he served as archivist at the CJC. David Rome died Montréal in 1996. Rome was designated Chevalier de l’Ordre national du Québec, the Quebec government’s highest honour, in 1987. In 1991 the Quebec ministry of immigration and cultural communities awarded him their Prix d’excellence and in the same year he received a doctorate honoris causa from Montreal’s Concordia University. Historians of Quebec Jewry including Pierre Anctil, Ira Robinson and others, continue to refer to Rome as an inspiration for their work.2 And yet, with the exception of one excellent, short article by Robinson that focuses on Rome as historian of Canadian Jewish life, next to nothing has been published about him.3 One possible explanation for the paucity of published work on David Rome may be that he is not someone easily categorized. As well, as I argue here, an important part of his impact was felt behind the scenes, in private, through person-to-person dialogue. The material that I present in this article is based on my reading of a part of the voluminous material on Rome preserved at the Canadian Jewish Congress Charities Committee (CJCCC ) archives and at the archives of the Jewish Public Library of Montreal, as well as on archival material at the BAnQ, Centres d’archives de Québec, having to do with Quebec’s first Arts Council. -
